Ghostbusters Minimates Series 3

Looks like those Minimates Visual Guides are already out of date! 😉

Here’s the latest Ghostbuster Minimates, with two fan favorites in Peck and Janine, and completing the marshmallow covered trio with Egon and Winston.

Ghostbusters Minimates Series 3New Ghostbuster Minimates Revealed

The expanding Ghostbusters Minimates line is the surprise hit of the year, invading both specialty stores and Toys R Us locations across the country. Announced today, that excitement will carry forward into the next specialty store release – the Ghostbusters Minimates Series 3 Box Set available for retailer pre-order in the November issue of the Diamond Previews catalog!

Building on the sets already begun in earlier waves, this knockout box set delivers the final members of the marshmallow-covered crew – Gooey Egon and Winston (Peter Venkmann cleverly avoided the incident) – as well as Ghostbusters 2 versions of both EPA lawyer Walter Peck and Ghostbusters receptionist Janine Melnitz!

Each Ghostbusters Minimate stands two inches tall and features 14 points of articulation as well as a host of removable and interchangeable parts and accessories. Pre-order this set now with your local comic store or favorite online retailer and get ready for the next chapter in the Ghostbusters Minimates saga as the spring 2010 release date approaches!

Art Asylum Minimates Visual Guides

I love it when toy companies put together visual guides for their products.  Seeing all the products together on a single high quality photograph is just a whole lot of fun!

Here’s Art Asylum’s visual guides for their entire family of Minimates.  I’ve left them at their maximum resolution (click for bigger images) so all the detail remains.  Check out the Marvel poster – it’s packed!

DC Universe Classics Wave 12 Spectre and Mary Batson Variant Pics

About six weeks ago, Mattel released the press pics of the 2-ups for DC Universe Classics Wave 12.  At the time, they announced that Mary Batson aka Mary Marvel would have a 50/50 variant in her white costume and that Spectre would have a glow in the dark chase variant.

Here are the official pics of the variants, posted by Mattel today on their Facebook page.  In contrast with the original press pics, I believe these are production samples, not 2-ups.
